On January 1, 2011, The Miller Corporation purchased 300,000 shares of The Mayfair Corporation for $5.7 million. The investment represented 40% of The Mayfair Corporation's outstanding common shares. During 2011, Mayfair reported net earnings of $2.25 million and paid a cash dividend of $0.15 per share. During 2012, Mayfair reported a net loss of $180,000 and again paid a dividend of $0.15 per share. Calculate the book value of Miller's investment in Mayfair as of December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012
Answer:
2011 Value of investment in Mayfair
= Beginning investment value + Portion of Mayfair net income - Portion of Mayfair dividends
= 5,700,000 + (40% * 2,250,000) - (300,000 shares * 0.15)
= $6,555,000
2012 Value of investment
= Beginning investment value + Portion of Mayfair net income - Portion of Mayfair dividends
= 6,555,000 + (40% * -180,000) - (300,000 * 0.15)
= $6,438,000
g The comparative balance sheets for Pharoah Company show these changes in noncash current accounts: Accounts Receivable increased $29,800, Prepaid Expenses decreased $10,800, and Inventory decreased $18,900.

On April 17, 2021, the Loadstone Mining Company purchased the rights to a coal mine. The purchase price plus additional costs necessary to prepare the mine for extraction of the coal totaled $6,000,000. The company expects to extract 1,000,000 tons of coal during a four-year period. During 2021, 250,000 tons were extracted and sold immediately. Required: 1. Calculate depletion for 2021. 2. Is depletion considered part of the product cost and included in the cost of inventory?
Answer:
The Loadstone Mining Company
1. The depletion for 2021 is:
= $1,500,000.
2. Depletion is considered part of the product cost and included in the cost of inventory.
Explanation:
a) Cost of rights to a coal mine = $6,000,000
Expected tons of coal to be extracted = 1,000,000 tons
Duration of the coal mine = 4 years
Depletion rate per ton = $6 ($6,000,000/1,000,000)
2021 depletion = $6 * 250,000 = $1,500,000
b) Depletion is like depreciation. While depreciation spreads the cost of a tangible asset over its estimated useful life, depletion measures the cost of extracting natural resources based on the number of units extracted vis-a-vis the total quantity available. Amortization is another related term but relates to intangible assets. It is the deduction of the value of an intangible asset over its useful life.
Swifty Company reports the following financial information before adjustments. Dr. Cr. Accounts Receivable $136,200 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $3,670 Sales Revenue (all on credit) 813,600 Sales Returns and Allowances 54,790 Prepare the journal entry to record bad debt expense assuming Swifty Company estimates bad debts at (a) 4% of accounts receivable and (b) 4% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,360 debit balance.
Answer:
(a) Debit Bad Debt Expense for $1,778; and Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for $1,778.
(b) Debit Bad Debt Expense for $6,808; and Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for $6,808.
Explanation:
(a) Company estimates bad debts at 4% of accounts receivable
Estimated bad debt = Accounts Receivable * 4% of accounts receivable = $136,200 * 4% = $5,448
Bad Debt Expense = Estimated bad debt - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts = $5,448 - $3,670 = 1,778
The journal entries will now look as follows:
Particulars Debit ($) Credit ($)
Bad Debt Expense 1,778
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 1,778
(To record bad debt expense.)
(b) Company estimates bad debts at 4% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,360 debit balance.
Bad debt expense = (Accounts Receivable * 4% of accounts receivable) + Allowance for Doubtful Accounts debit balance = ($136,200 * 4%) + $1,360 = $6,808
The journal entries will now look as follows:
Particulars Debit ($) Credit ($)
Bad Debt Expense 6,808
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 6,808

Cincinnati t-shirts prints custom t-shirts. The cost to produce one shirt is: direct materials, $10; direct labor, $1.20; and manufacturing overhead $4.50. Cincinnati Children’s Hospital asked Cincinnati t-shirt to sell them custom t-shirts for $12 each for a local charity event. Direct material and direct labor are required for each t-shirt. Of the manufacturing overhead, $1.50 is variable and would be incurred on each additional unit. The remaining $3 in overhead is allocated fixed overhead that would not be increased or decreased by this order. What would be the effect on net income if they accept this special order and sell 200 shirts to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for $12 each?
Answer:
Effect on income= $140 decrease
Explanation:
Giving the following formula:
Production costs:
Direct material= 10
Direct labor= 1.2
Variable overhead= $1.5
Selling price= $12
Number of units= 200
Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= Units sold*unitary contribution margin
Effect on income= 200*(12 - 10 - 1.2 - 1.5)
Effect on income= $140 decrease

goal.
Reset
Next
Answer:
Being debt-free within 15 years is an example of a long-term goal.
Explanation:
One main characteristic of a long-term goal is that it involves a planning horizon that is more than 5 years during which some thoughts are paid to the goal, and the means of achieving it are marshalled out, and rigorously pursued. Long-terms goals are best broken into manageable, short-term, and medium-term goals to enable the decision-maker to accomplish her goal. The future is always uncertain, to achieve a long-term goal you must remain motivated.
Dog Bone Bakery, which bakes dog treats, makes a special biscuit for dogs. Each biscuit uses 0.75 cup of pure semolina flour. They buy 4,000 cups of flour at $0.55 per cup. They use 3,588 cups of flour to make 4,800 biscuits. The standard cost per cup of flour is $0.54. A. What are the direct materials price variance, the direct materials quantity variances, and the total direct materials cost variance
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material rate and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (0.55 - 0.54)*4,000
Direct material price variance= $40 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (0.75*4,800 - 3,588)*0.55
Direct material quantity variance= $6.6 favorable
Finally, the total variance:
Total direct material variance= 40 + 6.6= $46.6 favorable
Unintentionally, David built in his backyard a garage that encroached two feet across the property line onto property owned by his neighbor, Harold. When the mistake was recognized immediately thereafter, David and Harold agreed in writing that David did not need to move the garage. The statutory period for the running of adverse possession in the state where the property is located is 15 years. Five years after the garage was completed, David sold his property to Nancy. Twenty years after Nancy purchased the property from David, Nancy claimed she had acquired the two feet of property through application of the doctrine of adverse possession. In a legal dispute between Nancy and Harold over ownership to the two feet Nancy now claims, which statement is most accurate:
Answer:
Nancy will prevail as she has used the property, openly as hers for over 15 years.
Explanation:
Since in the question it is given that nancy would prevail as she is able to used the property and for her it is open for above 15 years
Also the conditions related to the adverse possession would be fulfilled
So as per given situation, the above represent the answer
the same would be relevant
Going by the principle of adverse possession, the fact that Nancy has used the land beyond the statutory period of 15 years means that "Nancy will prevail as she has used the property, openly as hers for over 15 years."
The principle of adverse possession affirms that the possession of somebody else's land for an extended period of time might give the occupant the legal right of claiming ownership of the land. Nancy has up he land for 20 years since she purchased it from David, which is beyond the statutory period.Hence, Nancy would prevail since going by the principle of adverse possession.

a. Earnings per share:
= $ 11.50
b. Price-earnings ratio:
= 8x
c. Dividends per share:
= $4.60 per share
d. Dividend yield:
= 5%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Common stock, $125 par value = $12,500,000
Number of common stock shares = 100,000 ($12,500,000/$125)
$6 Preferred stock, $90 par value = $2,250,000
Number of preferred stock shares = 25,000 ($2,250,000/$90)
Net income = $1,300,000
Dividends on the Preferred stock = $150,000 ($2,250,000/$90 * $6)
Net income after preferred dividend = $1,150,000 ($1,300,000-$150,000)
Dividends on the Common stock = $460,000
Common stock market price = $92 per share
a. Earnings per share
= Net income after preferred dividend/number of shares
= $1,150,000/100,000
= $ 11.50
b. Price-earnings ratio:
= Market price/EPS
= $92/$11.50
= 8x
c. Dividends per share:
= Common stock dividends/number of common stock shares
= $460,000/100,000
= $4.60 per share
d. Dividend yield:
= Market price/Dividend per share
= $4.60/$92 * 100
= 5%

Suppose Dr. Chu decided to open a donuts shop call Dr. Donuts. Dr. Chu is able to source flours at $2 per pound (making 40 donuts), sugars at $5 per pound (making 100 donuts), and butter at $1 per pound (making 100 donuts) While the donuts are not very tasty, Dr. Chu believes he can sell a lot of them by pricing them at $0.36 per donuts. Assuming his rent is $1800 per month, corporate tax of $100 per month, and draws a salary of $200 a day (use 30 days in a month), how many donuts must Dr. Chu sell in a month to break-even.
Answer:
31,600 donuts
Explanation:
Break even point is the level of activity where a company makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break even point (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
Contribution per unit = Sales per unit - Variable Costs per unit
Step 1 : Sales per donut
Sales per donut = $0.36
Step 2 : Variable Cost per Donut
Variable Cost per Donut :
Flours ($2 ÷ 40) $0.05
Sugars ($5 ÷ 100) $0.05
Butter ($1 ÷ 100) $0.01
Total $0.11
Step 3 : Fixed cost per month
Rent $1,800
corporate tax $100
Salary ($200 x 30) $6,000
Total $7,900
therefore,
Break even point = $7,900 ÷ ($0.36 - $0.11)
= 31,600 donuts
Conclusion :
Dr. Chu sell 31,600 donuts in a month to break-even.

Impact of Treasury Financing on Bond Prices The Treasury periodically issues new bonds to finance the deficit. Review recent issues of the Wall Street Journal or check related online news to find a recent article on such financing. Does the article suggest that financial markets are expecting upward pressure on interest rates as a result of the Treasury financing
Answer:
When the treasury bonds are restricted to purchase it creates pressure on other securities and interest rates tend to move upwards.
Explanation:
When interest rates more upwards then cost of borrowing is increased. This increase in cost of borrowing creates pressure on the profits of private sector. The public sector benefits from this increase in interest rates. When government is in trouble and financing is limited then these measures are used to run the economy.
Suppose you know a company's stock currently sells for $90 per share and the required return on the stock is 15 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share
Answer:
$ 3.87
Explanation:
It is given that :
Cost of the company's stock per share = $ 90
The required return on the stock is = 15 %
Therefore, the dividend yield = [tex]$\frac{9}{2}=4.5$[/tex]
We known that
[tex]$\frac{\text{dividend in one year}}{\text{current price}}=0.045$[/tex]
[tex]$D_1=0.045 \times 90$[/tex]
= 4.05
The current dividend is,
[tex]$D_0= \frac{4.05}{1.045}$[/tex]
= $ 3.87

A purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically, Multiple Choice should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk and should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk. faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Answer:
faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Explanation:
Exchange rate risk is defined as the risk that exists when a company engaged in transactions that are denominated in a foreign currency rather than the domestic currency.
So if a purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically has international competitors in its local market, and the exchange rate is favouring the competitors there will be a risk for them.
For example if international competitors can source raw materials cheaper because of the exchange rate of a foreign country, it will be a disadvantage to local firms that cannot reduce their prices.

Suppose Fiat recently entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Case for $4.3 billion. Prior to the merger, the market for four-wheel-drive tractors consisted of five firms. The market was highly concentrated, with a Herfindahl-Hirschman index of 3,195. Case’s share of that market was 16 percent, while Fiat comprised just 8 percent of the market. If approved, by how much would the postmerger Herfindahl-Hirschman index increase?
Answer:
the increase resulting from this merger = 256
Explanation:
before the merger, both Fiat and Case's contribution to Herfindahl-Hirschman index = 16² + 8² = 320
after the merger, Fiat and Case's contribution to Herfindahl-Hirschman index = 24² = 576
the increase resulting from this merger = 576 - 320 = 256
Jonathan was granted enough nonqualified stock options (NQSOs) to purchase 10,000 shares of Capital, Inc. stock at $10 per share two years ago. He exercised the options this year when Capital, Inc. stock was $25 per share. Three years later, Jonathan sells the 10,000 shares for $100 per share. Which of the following statements regarding the tax ramifications of Jonathan's transactions are CORRECT?
Capital gains tax is due the year the options are granted to Jonathan.
Jonathan's cost to exercise all of the NQSOs is $50,000.
Jonathan will have a $750,000 capital gain when he sells the stock at $100 per share.
Jonathan will have an additional $150,000 included in his W-2 compensation income, which is a type of ordinary income, subject to payroll taxes this year.
A) I, II, and III
B) III and IV
C) I and II
D) I, II, III, and IV
Answer: B. III and IV
Explanation:
Based on the information given, we should note that the capital gain will be:
= $1,000,000 - $250,000
= $750,000
Also, the bargain amount will be calculated as:
= 10000 × ($25 - $10)
= 10000 × $15
= $150,000
We should also note that the statement in option 1 that "Capital gains tax is due the year the options are granted to Jonathan" is wrong. Capital gain will only arise when the shares have been sold, therefore option I is incorrect.
Based on the information above, the answer is option III and IV.

= (✓2DS/✓H)(✓p/✓-✓u)
= (✓2×75000×66/✓0.45)(✓5000/✓4750)
= 4812
b) The number of runs per year
This will be:
= D/Q
= 75000/4812
= 15.59
= 16 runs per year
c) The length (in days) of a run.
This'll be:
= 4812/5000
= 0.96
= 1 day
